Mabogo P. More: Philosophical Anthropology is the first book to provide an extensive treatment of More’s Africana existential thought. This book locates him, as it is clear in his body of work, in the Azanian (Black and Indigenous) existential tradition. As a philosopher, he is engaged from the perspective of black radical thought. From this intervention, it is clear that his philosophical project originates and is expressed from the existential condition of being-black-in-an-antiblack-world. It is from the lived experience and the fact of being black that More is meditated upon and this book, which is the extension of his work, brings to the forth the ways of thinking, knowing, and doing that that illuminate his philosophical project.

Tendayi Sithole’s Mabogo P. More: Philosophical Anthropology in Azania is the first book-length discussion of More’s philosophy. It is an important and compelling book, which makes the persuasive case that More’s work is, as the subtitle indicates, philosophical anthropology in Azania. * Blog of the APA *
